Started from the Bottom: Benjamin Franklin and Drake Compared

As per the norm, despite watching this video twice, I think John manages to describe the video better than I could. So at the risk of looking lazy I have stolen the video description. Enjoy!

"In which John compares the Drake song "Started from the Bottom (Now We Here)" with Benjamin Franklin's Autobiography, two American dream narratives that turn out to be significantly more complex and problematic than they initially seem.

Videos from the #tfiosmovie set will return next Tuesday, but I've been wanting to make this movie for months, because I am weird.

BY THE WAY, have you heard that my wife Sarah and I are working together on a new show called The Art Assignment produced and distributed by PBS Digital? It's true! Subscribe:http://www.youtube.com/theartassignment"
